I like it 11/28/2002

Most of the holes are fairly straightforward and there are not a lot of hazards. Most difficult hole is 559-yard monster at #14 which is hard just because of the length. Tee shot on #8 & the second shot on #11 are over water. I like the feeling of being out on the long, wide fairways, like a reminder of the former grandeur of the South Side before it bad. Course maintenance is so-so, not really good but not too scruffy either. Never had a problem getting on the course and the pace of play is good. Great value for $18 Pros: great value for the $, pretty good variety, easy to get tee times Cons: rude staff, sketchy location, have to cross streets more

Reasonable 10/2/2002

The course could be really good with just a littl more upkeep. Summer heat dries out the fairways so play in the srping and fall tend to be better. Pros: inexpensive Cons: course condition more

Mediocre course for a good price 7/19/2002

This course pretty much sucks, but it's cheap. It's long fairways are straight-forward... not very challenging, and moderately maintained. Play is very slow on the weekends -- Expect a 5-6 hour game during peak times. Go during a weekday and it's worth it. Pros: Inexpensive Cons: Slow play, Poor staff, course maintainence more
